Default Boundaries During D/S

My W and I have been doing an "in-house" separation because of the housing market. Because she initiated the divorce route and because her family is more legally savvy, I've been corresponding regularly with my parents and my sister to get advice. I've not been writing anything angry about her to them.

However, the past few talks she and I have had, she admitted she was reading my e-mail and texts to my family, putting a spin on it and throwing it in my face. She's either doing this on my phone while my phone is unattended (or I'm asleep) or she has hacked my e-mail account.

Is this appropriate behavior?

Well, it was her idea in the beginning, but I've come to accept that there is no hope for this relationship, nor is it necessarily a good thing for me anymore.

Or, just start making things up. Letters to lawyers, new girlfriends, negotiating large purchases, hiding funds in the Caymans, that sort of thing.
Just kidding.

Funny, my sister suggested that kind of thing.

Snooping is NEVER acceptable. ClipClop is correct. Lock down everything. I am not sure why she still feels entitled to your information so please correct that!

She's a conflict-seeking kind of person. Plus, she'll read something and misrepresent what was written no matter how benign. She's just itching for fights.
